Redd D,

The Lodge is wider as well as longer than my Lund and can carry more transom weight. I think you have the perfect motor. Believe me, 2Many pushed me hard for the 60/40. I would like to have the full 40 hp max that my boat is rated for, but alas it's too heavy, and needs a 5" higher transom, which by itself isn't that big a deal.

2Many,

Not yet. Just trailered it home yesterday after work. I'll take it out this weekend for some running time. Might even fish.
